Description

The Dancer pencil is 5.5' long and weighs in around 2.75 oz. This long casting pencil floats at rest. It can be from a very slowl lazy side to side to an agressive frothy slashing action. Gentle twichting causes it to stand up nose first like an injured dying bait fish. Lots of fun to work.

Field Notes

This is a floating pencil-style topwater lure designed for long casts and surface commotion. Work it with a slow side-to-side walk or faster slashing retrieves, then add gentle twitches to make it nose-up like a wounded baitfish. Best over open water when fish are feeding near the surface.

Pros

  • Floats at rest for easy pause-and-twitch presentations
  • Long-casting profile helps reach distant fish
  • Can be worked from subtle to aggressive surface action

Cons

  • Topwater presentation can be less effective in rough water
  • Requires active retrieve and rod control
